The rule of thumb is to boot UEFI if it’s available: See Also. IMPORTANT: recent enough PCs will likely offer you both legacy boot and UEFI boot. To “unlock” this type of USB stick you’ll need an application called “ SMI Mass Production Tool” which is a Windows Application (!) – I tried to find the original developer without luck, so you can download either from the website or directly here. That’s it, we’re done Eject the USB stick (no need to run any diskutil commands as it wasn’t mounted automaticaly) and boot on your PC. If you want to erase your startup disk: Start up your computer in macOS Recovery, then choose Disk Utility in the Recovery app. Open the Disk Utility app on your Mac using one of the following methods, depending on the type of disk or volume you want to erase. A native Windows PC, BootCamp, VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox running a Windows version will work as well of course. If you have any files you want to save, copy them to another storage device. Note : The 2 tests I performed where succesfully done under Windows XP running under Parallels Desktop 9. This has been successfully tested with 2 MacBook Air Apple USB Restore sticks. Note : Technology moves forward, so you might run into the situation that this does not work for the stick you’re looking at. The trick is actually not all that hard, but it took me a while to find a solution that would work on a Chinese website ( ). As you can imagine: My Chinese sucks … so I thought it might be practical for other users to translate it and add some of my own experiences to it.
